N ILLINOIS: Defensively, NIU is going to be young up front. That means the team could struggle to stop the run. The Huskies are, however, good in the
secondary, which will help against pass-happy MAC teams. Offensively, the Huskies will go as far as the rushing attack takes them.

DUKE: QB Daniel Jones showed he belonged as a freshman, and the hope is that the O-Line can improve. If it does then this offense will be fine. The Blue Devils will, however, struggle on D. They lack talent in the secondary.
